Just like that, another Christmas is behind us. It came and went in a flurry of friends, family, presents and good food. And now we're left with the reality of dealing with things that we were trying not to think about till after the holiday. We've got two kids with school choices to make (middle and high school). ACK.
And just like that, it's time for another Studio Calico kit reveal. Here's to escaping the winter blahs with Far Far Away - a little fairy tale magic is always a good thing.
NOTE : If you are a SC subscriber, you can shop for add-ons now. (If you're not, kit links will work after midnight EST) Remember, if you see "temporarily unavailable" under a kit, keep on watching. The SC shopping cart holds your items for 10 minutes as you shop, so many kits will become available as shoppers make their final decisions and check out.
Halloween | Far Far Away scrapbook main
This page reminded me how hard it is to get back into the groove after a scrapbooking break! There was a LOT of pushing stuff around.. and then it finally came together. I set the wood veneer diamond on the background and traced around it, intending to stitch a diamond. But I fell in love with the look of the pencil on the background and ran with that instead. I layered vellum over the top and stitched it in place.
Yes | Far Far Away scrapbook main + Ivy Tower + Magic Carpet + Wishing Star
Ahhhh.. I want to be back there right now. ;) I had to get my favorite photo onto a layout. Given the slow moving status of my 2013 album, I figure it will take me a while to really start my 2014 book. I'll scrap my favorites in the meantime.
I love the silkscreens in Magic Carpet - I mixed Sunny Day and Something Blue paint to get the perfect green, then screenprinted the plus design over vellum. It's a perfect pop of color.
If you have any questions about how these came together, let me know! And happy reveal day!
